Allowing Presidential Debates to be nothing more than lies about candidates' and opponents' records and platforms makes a mockery of the democratic process. The idea presented in this petition attempts to reform the debate process: a critical vehicle in any democratic election.
The Commission on Presidential Debates should establish a bi-partisan team of fact-checkers representing a variety of different industries to be present at each debate to confirm the validity of the statements made by each candidate. The status of each statement (pending, confirmed, or denied) should be displayed both on TV screens in real-time and online.
